Chapter 668: Old Enemies
Just when Jack thought things couldn’t get any worse, the atmosphere trembled as a new wave of demons appeared.
Leading them was a woman with red skin and long raven hair that cascaded down her back. On her back was a long greatsword wrapped in cloth, as if the world was not worthy to see its blade.
Beside her was a youth with white hair. It was none other than Hendrix. His laid-back posture didn’t match the sharp glint in his eyes.
Behind them surged an entire army of demons and members of the Flaming Rose—hundreds upon hundreds flooding the narrow path as if summoned from some dark hole itself.
Jack’s grip tightened on his lightning odachi, and he couldn’t help but mutter under his breath, "Tch, just great. More of them."
He cast a quick glance at Akira, who had already shifted into a guarded stance, her eyes calmly observing the new arrivals.
Her face was that of disgust. As a Valkyrie, the princess felt that being surrounded by unholy vermin like demons was no different from being near a trash can.
As if that wasn’t enough, four more figures emerged from the swarm, each radiating an oppressive aura that made the weaker demons instinctively step aside.
Jack’s eyes narrowed, and he seriously felt the urge to laugh at how terrible the situation was looking by the minute. "Seriously? Four expert-level demons now?"
He clicked his tongue in annoyance, muttering under his breath, "This is just getting worse and worse."
The four demons bowed slightly to Kira, their heads lowered in respect, though their sharp horns and beastly appearances still made them look anything but subservient.
